San Francisco police today announced that a man has been arrested in connection with a home invasion robbery and murder in the city’s Sunset District three years ago.
Andre Bueno, 29, was arrested for allegedly killing 44-year-old Xiao “Ben” Xiong Luo at a home in the 2400 block of Moraga Street at about 5:45 p.m. on Jan. 27, 2010, police said.
Bueno had an outstanding arrest warrant for murder when he was detained for a traffic stop by Las Vegas Metropolitan police on Dec. 3., according to police.
He was extradited back to San Francisco on Jan. 16 and remains in custody, police said.
Investigators said back in 2010 that Bueno and one other suspect entered the home, tied up nine other people and shot Luo once in the chest. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Bueno remains in custody in lieu of $3 million bail and faces charges of murder, conspiracy, assault with a deadly weapon, second-degree burglary, five counts of first-degree robbery and two counts of attempted first-degree robbery, according to sheriff’s Chief Deputy Kathy Gorwood.
The case remains under investigation. Anyone with information is encouraged to call Inspectors Kevin Jones or Pam Hofsass with the Police Department’s homicide detail at (415) 553-1145 or the department’s anonymous tip line at (415) 575-4444.
